After Action Report
The Trail Blazers took care of the Jazz 97-81. Trail Blazers torched the Jazz on the offensive end. The Trail Blazers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
